How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions
Joshua often uses cognitive behavioral approaches that focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. This method helps with anxiety, depression, and compulsive habits by teaching concrete skills for managing thoughts and actions.He also uses internal family perspectives, which look at different parts of a person’s inner life and how they relate to one another. That work can help with shame, self-criticism, and understanding why certain reactions keep showing up. A third strand is action-oriented techniques like psychodrama and lifespan-oriented work that help people process past events and rehearse new ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joshua collaborates with each person to choose which methods to try first and adjusts those choices based on what feels useful. The decision is guided by a client’s goals, history, and everyday needs rather than a fixed plan.
